Document Description
The Conservancy proposes to fund improvements to an existing National Park Service Trail Corridor that runs in a north-south direction in the western portion of Joshua Tree National Park (JTNP), and establish a new trailhead and parking area at each end of the trail on private lands just outside of JTNP. The recreational trail would be 9.1 miles long, the majority of which is within JTNP. The Project is a joint venture among the Conservancy, the Friends of the Desert Mountains, JTNP, the Mojave Desert Land Trust, the Palm Springs-South Coast Office of the Bureau of Land Management, and the City of Desert Hot Springs. See Section 4 of the attached MND/IS for a detailed project description.
